Thank you for sharing! what lovely names. I made a list of potential names earlier (avoiding work... DP thinks I am nuts) that included Hilda and Vera and I love Gloria and Gladys and penny.

Lol at ASBO chicken. mine are noisy and probably a bit sweary but they're not too antisocial. Unless my sister visits - Marjorie attacks her toenails

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

ASBO Chicken hides in the shrubbery and goes all kung fu on anything's arse that saunters passed, chicken and human alike.

[Salhal]

We had Margot and Barbara but Barbara died, so now we have Margot, Cagney and Lacey!

[Punkatheart]

Tatiana (thinks she is above the rest)

Narcissa (vain and is always looking at her reflection)

Bronte (she's from Yorkshire)

Cathy (another from Yorkshire - so Heathcliff's lass)

[OhWesternWind]

We have Sapphire Blue and Peach Blossom the two posh cream legbars, and Clucky, Dora and Plumette the ex-batts. (Plum and Nutmeg ex-batts RIP).

Clucky is a fab name for a chicken! I'm getting my first lot of ex-batts next month and am very excited!

We have Megan, who has just hatched four lovely chicks.
Bridget who is an idiot
Coco and Lottie who are cochins (Lottie has just gone broody and is known as the Mad Lady)
Jo, who is in charge
Cleo, who is almost in charge.......

[BabyDubsEverywhere]

I had Trixie Dixie and Pixie, but Trixie turned into a Travis and i had to rehome Pixie and Dixie to a lovely mumsnetter on here when we moved.

Currently in the process of finding a way to have chickens again...possibly under the decking

[Grockle]

They're all lovely. I fear this thread is turning me into even more of a crazy chicken lady than I already am.

[florencerusty]

Maud, Marilyn, Norma-Jean, Flo and Mo. Mr Fox (the bugger) had Aud and Mabel :(

[GemAimee]

I had Britney and Christina, but Brit is no longer with us.

Then we got ducks, both girls, and I made the mistake of allowing DP to name them - Richard and Judy. You can tell which one is Judy by her big white bosom...

[marmiteandhoney]

Mavis, Henrietta, Violet and Flora. We did have an Enid but she died.
We have two chicks called Hilda and Elsie.

[AnonymousBird]

Marian (tough nut)
Goldy (deputy tough nut)
Speckledy
Bluebell
Snowy

Basically named by DC, so highly unoriginal names but they are all absolutely gorgeous!

I haven't named the rest of the animals

[TheFowlAndThePussycat]

Ours are Roxy, Velma & Mama (Morton). They used to live in an enclosed run so we went for a prison theme (think Chicago ). It's amazing how much they play to character!

[LittleB]
